Confirmed: No Cannes for ‘Miral’
According to HollywoodNews.com, award winning director and famed artist Julian Schnabel will not be taking his new film – Miral – to the Cannes Film Festival. The festival announced its lineup this morning. Schnabel had previously debuted his Diving Bell and the Butterfly there, and Before Night Falls.
But he says the festival wanted him to screen Miral out of competition but in the main festival. He said thanks, but no. The result is that Miral will debut in Venice, and then go to Toronto back to back next September. In Toronto Schnabel, sources say, may also have a huge exhibition of his art simultaneously.
Too bad it won’t premiere at Cannes, but I’m sure it’ll do very well in venice and Toronto instead. Can’t wait for more information about Miral!
